They need to draft a Mike Leake-esque player.
Round 1 HS players should be reserved for teams with significant help on the way from their minor leagues.
We have maybe 2 pitchers that are within 2 years of the majors and can legitimately compete for a starter role. Mahle and Castillo. Maybe Romano.
Beyond that, we have a lot of mediocre pitching or pitching that is far off enough that they can't be considered at this time.
I really hope we take either McKay or Wright. Bukauskas could work out as well.
McKay is special because he's an MLB (or near MLB ready) Left hander who can start sooner rather than later.
I hope we avoid Greene. We don't need a player who doesn't want to be here.
